baseball movie is bugging me (SOLVED)

[Kiwi]

My coworker and I got chatting about a movie we remembered - mostly just one scene - but neither of us can remember what it was called.

It involved baseball (or sports, etc), and near the beginning of the movie some local neighbourhood kids are playing baseball in a park. One little boy, who's never played before, gets a good hit but just stands there. All of the boys start cheering for him to "run home, run home".... so he takes off running down the street to his house.

Does this sound familiar? I'm thinking it would've been released in the 1990's but not sure when exactly.





Cake anyone?

the movies that come to my mind are the little rascles or for some reason dennis the menace stands out. I may be wrong, but i'm sure someone here will be right

Yeah, I was thinking Little Rascals, too.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I wondered if it was, but all I could remember was the "big league" games, so we dismissed it.



Ok, we can ignore me now. Haha

Yup, Angels in the Outfield!  There were a lot of baseball-and-kids movies in the 90's.  That, Sandlot, Rookie of the Year ... even Hook had an integral baseball scene.
